Everybody was mellow, and feeling fine
Then in walked Ella, with a word in mind
Yeah you better stop that music, stop the band
'Cos somebody in here has got my man
Ella Mae started lookin', with a frown on her face
There ain't nobody, gonna leave this place
You'd better check your partner right away
'Cos Ella Mae mean just what she say
I'm fat and forty, and I sure can't run
But there ain't nobody, can outrun this gun
You'd better check your partner right away
'Cos Ella Mae mean just what she say
There's a ruffle in the corner, and a stir in the crowd
A slim footed fella, started holllerin' out loud
Yeah you better stop that music, stop the band
And Ella Mae said "here comes my man"
Ella Mae Ella Mae, here comes your man
Ella Mae Ella Mae, Ella Mae here comes your man
Ella Mae Ella Mae, Ella Mae here comes your man
